The response of the gun world is to light a candle and show how you can prevent violence. Take a picture and post it on the net. If you don’t have a good net outlet for it send the picture to me (candle@joehuffman.org) or any one of many other gun rights activists offering to do the same.
I keep thinking I should create an image involving Boomerite, gasoline, a rifle, and a highly exothermic reaction instead of an ordinary candle. But I probably won’t have time for that and will have to settle for something much more mundane. Sunday I probably will be attending a USPSA match and I’ll try to get them to incorporate a candle into one of the stages.
And for people that will be in the Seattle area on Sunday it would be nice to have someone take a few pictures of the Washington Ceasefire turnout. Here are the details:
10:30 AM – 11:30 AM – Westlake Plaza, 501 Pine Street
(Downtown) Seattle, Washington 98101
Host: Washington Ceasefire
Note: Take the Union Street exit off I-5 in downtown Seattle and go straight for three blocks and north for one block to Fifth Avenue and Pine Street.
This turns out to be just across the street from where I work. I could view the event from a window in my office if I were in town. Since I won’t be in town I would really like to have information about their turnout from someone who will be here.

I kind of like the idea of showing up at the CeaseCriticalThoughtProcess group’s gathering with my open-carried M329 and a tactical flashlight! Totally non-confrontational, of course. And just refuse to leave, despite how huffy and violent they get.
With a T-shirt emblazoned with: Light ’em up to prevent violence!
Sorry, I will be at church, and I don’t go to Seattle very much, and I would get counted for a supporter if within sight and I am not a supporter of any stupidity that I can identify. But, thanks for asking.
